So good hearing from you! It looks like they may be post phoned again. We will see. Everything will be fine for your arrival. We are getting everything ready as much as we can and God is good and faithful all the time.
Salut! Je suis tres enthousiaste que dans un mois nous sera avec vous! J'ai vu que Côte d'Ivoire a des elections le 31 octobre. I know that the elections have been postponed many times, do you think they will actually go through with…
Glad to know you are excited about the JC library here. Lots of good books (though do realize that many are a decade or more old - not a lot of new stuff, but a lot of classics). As you narrow down the list of your own books you are considering…

Support raising yard sale summary: felt like I was in the story where Jesus fed the 5,000, but instead of fish/loaves, the money multiplied!
Moi aussi! Je suis ravie! Ton français sera formidable, je t'assure, parce qu'en parlant la langue, la grammaire s'ameliora. And, of course, my French isn't perfect either, despite my masters'!
I would love to know a…

Mon dernier semestre est presque fini!!! My last semester is nearly finished!!! And yet, feel like life is just getting started!!
Hey! I am super excited that I'll be able to serve and speak with you!!! J'éspère que mon français parlé n'est pas mauvais!!! Je peux lire mais je crois que j'ai peur faire les erreurs. Et puis, mes…
There are a lot of things that drew me to Journey Corps. I was looking for a "gap year" of sorts, time to spend away from educating myself and instead being a servant to others. But I wasn't exactly sure WHAT it is I should do. Journey Corps has tracks and flexibility to allow me to figure out where God is leading me to serve. The icing on the cake was Cote D'Ivoire: being a french minor, I was hoping God would lead me to a place where I could solidify my speaking skills.
Your Heart For Missions
For a long time, God has put on my heart a desire to right the wrongs in this world and to explore His creation and peoples. I have been blessed to be a blessing and I have so much that I can learn from other cultures and people with circumstances different from my own.
How Would You Rate Your interest in Missions? 1 being little interest 10 being life calling
I went on my first mission trip when I was 16 for a week to Jamaica. It certainly whet my appetite!!! I've gotten to do mission work both home and abroad, my most recent being in inner city Washington D.C. just last month.

Hey lady! Glad to hear about the sale! God is good.
Glad to know you are excited about the JC library here. Lots of good books (though do realize that many are a decade or more old - not a lot of new stuff, but a lot of classics). As you narrow down the list of your own books you are considering bringing, feel free to ask if a specific title is already here or not - as that way you can bring something that isn't and get two books for the weight of one. Looking forward to meeting you in a month!

I would love to know a little more about you ... if you want to send me a separate message, that would be awesome, just so I can know more about you and your passion for la Côte d'Ivore!
Maybe I'll correct your French if it is terrible, but right now just write, read, speak, and hear as much as you can, CJ!

Today i hitchhiked by riding a moto from a man heading to Bouake passing our campus today, he thanked me for giving me a ride and wouldn't accept any money! Then i sat and reviewed my French words at an outdoor cafe, buying some coffee for 100 francs (.20cents) before my French tutor session began.
Hey Caitlin! I'm so excited to be serving with you next year! Et je suis tellement heureuse d'avoir une autre personne qui parle français! Je serai sur l'équipe des chefs comme prof de français, alors j'éspère que vous serez la meilleure élève.
Bienvenue ma sœur. Nous sommes encouragés par ton engagement avec ce nouveau programme de Journey Corps. Nous attendons ton arrivée en RCI (République de Côte d'Ivoire). Nous avons reçus Jim Copeland et Daniel Graybeal il y a quelques jours. Ils trouvent qu'il fait chaud chez nous mais nous ne comprenons pas. Il fait beau ici! Bon courage ma sœur et nous espérons bientôt te voir par ici!
